My husband is from Uruguay and lost his passport. We live in SC does he have to go to his embacy to get?

Question

a new one? What forms of ID etc. does he need?

Answer 1

It is possible that you will be able to do this by mail through the Uruguayan consulate in Washington--most embassies can do things like visas and passports by mail.  He will need:

-his identity card (Cédula de Indentidad), which he can only get in Uruguay, so he presumably has this already

-a certificate of good conduct (e.g., police record)

-two color photos

-$84 money order

-a report stating that his old passport has been destroyed or lost

You should call the Embassy ASAP.  Their phone lines are open Monday-Friday 11AM-1PM and 2PM-4PM.

Answer 2

Although the requirements to replace your husbands passport would be the same as Kelly C states. You would have to apply to the Uruguay consulate at:

Address: 1077 Pone de Leon Blvd., Coral Gabels, FL 33134

Phone: [phone]

Fax: [phone]

E-mail: [e-mail]



Official: Felipe Velázquez



Consular District or Jurisdiction:



Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Texas, Puerto Rico, South Carolina and Tennessee

Also the passports are handled by consulates only. There are both a Embassy and a consulate in Washington DC but you are out of the consulates jurisdiction. Which is why you have to apply to the consulate in FL.

Answer 3

your husband must go to the Uruguay Embassy in the country he is now in.
